Capd excerpt from Asha article 2017:
Individuals suspected of having (C)APD frequently present with one or more of the following behavioral characteristics: difficulty understanding spoken language in competing messages, noisy backgrounds, or in reverberant environments; misunderstanding messages; inconsistent or inappropriate responding; frequent requests for repetitions, saying “what” and “huh” frequently; taking longer to respond in oral communication situations; difficulty paying attention; being easily distracted; difficulty following complex auditory directions or commands; difficulty localizing sound; difficulty learning songs or nursery rhymes; poor musical and singing skills; and associated reading, spelling, and learning problems. It is important to note that this list is illustrative, not exhaustive, and that these behavioral characteristics are not exclusive to (C)APD. Other diagnoses present with some subset of similar characteristics, including learning disorder (LD), language impairment, ADHD, and Asperger’s syndrome; therefore, these behavioral characteristics are not specifically diagnostic of (C)APD.
